Thank You so much for over 1400 plays ❤️

This is a second part of my triptych "Memories From the City of Light", begun with "Vital Signs". A love theme, a story of my heroes love – full of uncertainty, unfulfillment and even danger... Creating this piece I had in mind two couples: Rachel and Rick Deckard from Ridley Scott's "Blade Runner" and Irene and Driver from Nicolas Winding Refn's "Drive".

This track is also a homage to one of the greatest composers - Ewangelos Odiseas Papathanasiu aka Vangelis.

In production again I've reach out for help to Jörg aka @joerxworx and his tenor saxophone on which he beautifully performed, catching the atmosphere of this track in couple of amazing sounds – thank You my friend for Your patience!

Story behind the scenes:

This track was created one day (about 4 weeks ago) when I had one beer that went hard to my head. I sat before my computer and tried to listen my previous tracks and I felt very unsatisfied by all that music. It felt like everything was... heartless.
In that moment I took all my feelings, all memories of happy and not so happy love to create this track.

In the process I got mad at my 2 octaves Novation LaunchKey mini keyboard, because my hands almost couldn't fit both on such a small device... and I understood it limits my creativity... Time to change... something ;)

Also it's a first time I played without metronome. This track is completely devoid of tempo. These are the pure emotions of playing live.

The Space Between Us

One Acoustic guitar, some Celli and Vibes. 
This track was originally called 'So, misogyny, racism and corruption are OK after all' after the orange nutter was re-elected in a democracy.
Robert Llewellyn pointed out that this was a waste of a lovely track. 
I was watching the latest Professor Brian Cox BBC documentary programme 2 'Dark Planets' in his series 'Solar System' and I changed the title to celebrate the amazing reality of our universe and our staggeringly brilliant scientific ability to perceive it. The best in humanity is inspiring.

Dark Planets

Five instruments 
- two violins, one viola, one cello, and one clarinet 
weave through individual melodies, engaging in a bizarre dialogue, until they finally find a harmonious conclusion together.

A multi-tonal dialog for Clarinet and String Quartett in F-minor.

Pentamorphosis

"'Tis better to have loved and lost, than never to have loved at all." - Alfred Tennyson, "In Memoriam"

A reflective composition in memory of my mother, who lived a wonderful life and loved others unconditionally.  To have loved her back for many years was a blessing and memories of her are a great treasure.

To Have Loved

 "Ice Flower" - a calm, atmospheric piece, in which the piano and the violin talk to each other in a romantic way.
It's the story of how all small and fragile things can find their own place in this world.
Song written and recorded in collaboration with Rolando Marchesini. 
Enjoy! 🎶

Ice Flower

Limitless, endless possibilities. Life is … whatever we want it to be , however we choose it to be. In a way we are the Gods of our life’s and our Destiny. Plenty of variables however the choice and chance never leaves us!

Life is…

Alexandru Sorin Ciobanu Al Rufei

Life is ...

An experiment with two voices and 4-parts.  I had difficulty balancing the parts.  In any case, I hope you enjoy it. Thank you for listening.

ADAGIO

An instrumental odyssey through the infinite. *The Endless Symphony* translates the mathematical beauty of π into music — patterns without repetition, harmony without end. Each movement explores a facet of infinity: creation, balance, entropy, and return. Through orchestral textures, ambient electronics, and minimalist design, Avaline Ingels constructs a sonic architecture that feels both divine and human — precision guided by emotion.  
Piano, harp, and strings trace circular motifs while choirs breathe in golden ratios. Tempos shift by Fibonacci values, phrases extend by digits of π, and melodies evolve like galaxies forming. The album’s structure loops perfectly: the finale’s final drone blends into the prelude’s first chord, forming a seamless circle of sound.  
*The Endless Symphony* is not a story but a mirror of eternity — a composition that, like π itself, continues forever, revealing meaning only through motion.

Harmonic Crust

A serene constellation of memories united by warmth and distance, merging like voices in the same sky. Sound glides between fragile connections and silent bonds, revealing the invisible pulse that holds everything together. Unity becomes light: subtle, radiant, and eternally returning.

If you use AI in any form to create "your music", don't bother with my profile, you are not welcome here.
AI music generation detector: https://www.submithub.com/ai-song-checker
I do not support the use of generative AI in music creation. I will not support people who use such technologies nor will I use them. The two songs I posted only serve to raise awareness of the existence of such technologies and as a warning.

At the beginning I would like to sincerely apologize that I am responding to comments late and I am sometimes unable to keep up with listening to your work, but I still work full-time in a profession that has absolutely nothing to do with music and I have my duties towards family and home.

To everyone who flew into my corner on SoundCloud: I am grateful for your support with likes, shares and thank you for the great comments. Please don't hesitate to suggest changes to my music in them. Thanks to this, the next songs will be better and better.

All my music is MIDI (except some drum loops), played/created by me and edited in Ableton Live.
